brady bunch Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 I decided to take the plunge and get 4 season tickets for me and my sons (even though we exiled in deepest darkest Berkshire), so as per the club PR I waited until 10am this morning to see how many seats became free in my area of choice (W14 for what its worth). Guess how many spaces became available online at 10am as promised? zero! yep none, looked at a few other areas and the same... I suspect that it is very unlikely that nearly every one has been renewed and more likely that once again the "slick ticketing operation" has messed up and not done what they promised. I ended up buying in the family section (W7) with seats that have been available for week, saved myself £700 quid, but equally the club has probably "lost out" on the extra cost of the tickets I was willing to get. Good old city, but well done to all existing season ticket holder who renewed and kept the faith (although of about half of those I know told me they were not renewing!)

OneTeamInBristol Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 After 12 on Tuesday (deadline for losing your seat) it took a fair while for the site to update which seats hadn't been renewed as I initially thought the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The areas without any spare seats are probably not yet released for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFCGav Posted May 6, 2021 Report Share Posted May 6, 2021 It can't be a shortage can it? Much more likely they aren't available yet or an error. I'll renew on payday this month, only need two next to one another so not too worried about availability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W14 does appear to be the section with the fewest number of seats available (11 when I looked just now and no good for 4 people as mostly lone seats) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
